Ultimate HD Fire Effect SSE

The best and most approved fire effects mod available on Skyrim Special Edition right now! You can choose between Ultra, Medium, and Low Resolution versions of the mod. This mod changes all fire effects in Skyrim (fire spells, bonfires, braziers, torches, dragon fire, some smoke effects, etc.)

Disclaimer

I am not the original author of this mod. This mod is the work of the super cool BuzzDee84 (rheadude) and I have full written permission from the OG author to provide this mod for Skyrim Special Edition.

My previous port was set to hidden because someone, who was not even an OG author, reported my port even though I had correctly explained the OG author permissions and that written permission was not required. It was frustrating and I ended up canceling the port altogether. However, I wrote to BuzzDee84 and the OG author very kindly gave me a full written permission.

Even so, if the OG authors find that this mod violates any of their terms, then they have the right to burn it! (plan to plan)

DISCLAIMER

I am not the original author of this mod. This mod is the work of the super cool BuzzDee84 (rheadude)and I have obtained full written permission from the OG author to prot this mod for Skyrim Special Edition.

My previous port was set to hidden as someone, who was not even the OG author, reported my port even though I had interpreted the OG author's permissions correctly and didn't require a written one. This was demoralizing and I ended up taking the port down altogether. However, I wrote to BuzzDee84 and the OG author was kind enough to give me a full written permission.

Even then, if the OG author finds this mod in violation of any of their terms, then they have the right to BURN IT DOWN! (PUN INTENDED)
